Charmaine Crooks is an amazing human being. Being a five-time Olympian and Olympic silver medalist is an amazing accomplishments within itself, but in addition to her achievements in athletics she is a sports and business leader. With her participation in the International Olympic Committee, IOC Ethics Committee, World Anti-Doping Agency, and Right of Play International Crook plays an active role in the development of modern day athletics despite her retiring from the track. Now she is the president of NGU Consultants Inc and director on various charitable and public sector boards. She also has current volunteer leadership on the Canadian Olympic Committee, Canadian Soccer Association executive board and the Organizing Committee FIFA Competitions. To sum up her neverending resume she recently co-founded the 365 International Sport Foundation that is meant to bring communities together through participation in sports. To put it simply, someone that has dedicated their life to sports and participated in so many things outside of their athletic career, they without a doubt have to love sports. It is simply impossible to accomplish the things Charmaine Crooks has done without having a genuine heart pounding love for athletics and people. In a way, disregarding Crooks participation in all these committees and initiatives is a complete dismissal of hard work and athletes. Why? Because the things Charmaine Crooks impacts people participating in athletics today, as well as the future generations that will lead our nation through sports. If the time she has invested towards creating an even playing field for athletes and inspiring the young generations goes ignored, then the future of athleticism will be ignored as well.
